Be able to print a full term roster for each service type

Hi,
Our last CMS would print out on a A4 landscape the whole roster for a service for 3 months. It's really handy for our older generation to give them a hard copy roster rather than multiple pages of printouts.
We would LOVE this feature! I know other Elvanto churches would like the same thing too. Currently people are re-doing it on excel to get this to their congregation.
PS totally love Elvanto, way better than previous provider but this is one feature I really miss

Hey everyone,

I'm marking this as complete as the Volunteer Positions Report can generate this exact view and be used to print out.

Yes Please! 10 votes from me :) I have teams that won't use Elvanto because they can't print it out.

You can generate a Volunteer Positions Report for this. This article looks into how to generate the report.

Hi Stewart,
It's not the same. What I more mean is a set of the dates up the top, with the volunteer positions on the x axis and you can see all of the roster for the term in a readable format.
Pretty much what happens when  you do a print from "edit multiple" in the services tab. THen select volunteers schedule dates vertical and export as a web page. That would even be great if I could print it on one page!! Any way I can do that?

Agree - we want to be able to print what we can see on the screen when we have all the services open

Hi Hannah - Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier. The Volunteer Positions report can be exported in exactly that format. Check out this article that looks into this report specifically.

I may be daft but I have tried with that article multiple times and it's still not in a good one page printable format. Would you be able to send an example of the report this article is describing so I can compare what I come up with? 
Otherwise we end up with a full document but it goes over one page, cuts things off etc. 
Thanks for your patience Stewart!

Once you've got it to display the information you want, try exporting it to Excel before printing. That way you can use Excel to control the printing more.

I concur with this. I've just spent the last 2hrs copying out my service rosters from Elvanto into this format in word for my people. There is no way to get anything like this from the export parametres as far as I can tell. But I'm happy to be wrong about that! If not, I'd love a simple date on one axis and role on the other with the volunteers then listed like so:
